Dimes and Judas discuss the latest trans school shooter in British Columbia, the Bad Bunny Superbowl performance, and Trump’s Venezuela immediately shipping oil to Israel. After exploring the new British Columbia separation movement, they side into a review of “Bandit Country: The IRA & South Armagh” by Toby Harnden. This is a history of the least controllable area during the War of Irish Independence against England, its ruler Tom “Slab” Murphy, and the internal schisms that lead to the downfall of the IRA. They also ask the question: what makes Ireland to unique, and can the IRA be replicated elsewhere?
